validation for a non active record input field

not even a single person implemented non-active record field validation?...please help

Hi there,

I've never done something like that but I can imagine you could do the validation in your controller. When the action is invoked you can check the values received in the params hash and act accordingly.

:slight_smile:

What you should have is a new model (e.g. AdReply), so that that form points to AdRepliesController#create, which then attempts to create the model, and redirects wherever you need to if successful/failed. All the validations are then on that model and are independent of your ClassifiedModel.

Cheers,
